Elderly Couple Beaten During Portage Park Home Invasion

CHICAGO (CBS) — An elderly couple was beaten during a home invasion Thursday night in the Portage Park neighborhood.

Police said one or two men dressed in all black, including hoodies, broke into a home in the 5400 block of West Henderson Street around 11:45 p.m., and hit an 81-year-old man and a 77-year-old woman in the face.

“They have to use walkers. They’re very limited on their ability to be able to move,” neighbor Ron Dompke said. “Very nice couple, good neighbors. I can’t believe that something like that would have happened to anybody on the block.”
